TUSCAN CHICKEN IN PARMESAN CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Season each side of each pounded chicken breast with Italian Seasoning and salt and pepper.
• Combine flour and grated parmesan in a shallow bowl. Dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture, coating both sides.
• Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the 2 tablespoons butter and stir/melt.
• Cook the chicken (in batches if necessary) for 4-5 minutes per side or until its fully cooked (165F in the center and no longer pink) and browned on both sides. Remove from the skillet and place on a plate. Cover with foil.
• Wipe the skillet clean and return the skillet to medium high heat and add the remaining ¼ cup butter. Use a wooden spoon to scrape the bottom of the pan as the butter melts. The brown bits hold a lot of flavor, so no need to remove.
• Add the garlic and sun-dried tomatoes and cook for 1-2 minutes or until fragrant.
• Whisk in the flour and allow to thicken for approximately 1 minute.
• Whisk in the heavy cream, chicken broth, parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and pepper. Stir to combine.
